The womens just complaint: or, Mans deceitfulness in love. Being a most pleasant new play-house song. Long time deceiv'd with feigned vows, at last, the females find their coyness holds not fast; for man, that noble creature, cannot love, nor fix his soul on ought but what's above: 'tis everlasting joy he centers on, and leaves soft fools, women to dote upon; which once they finding, seem to loose their care of hopes they had, and fall to flat dispair. To a pleasant new play-house tune, much in request.

The Womens just Complaint : OR , Mans Deceitfulness in Love . Being a most Pleasant New Play-house Song . Long time deceiv'd with feigned Vows , at last , The Females find their Coyness holds not fast ; For Man , that Noble Creature , cannot Love , Nor fix his Soul on ought but what 's above : 'T is Everlasting joy he Centers on , And leaves soft Fools , Women to dote upon ; Which once they finding , seem to loose their Care Of hopes they had , and fall to flat dispair . To a pleasant New play-house Tune , much in request .

O Love thou art a Treasure , could Constancy remain , But for an hour of Pleasure , we feel an Age of Pain : How eager is the Lover . But when his Ioys are over , Poor Women do discover , the vow of Men are vain : Poor Women , &c. In vain are all their Swearings , 't is but your Love to gain , In vain their promis'd Fairings , their Lusts for to obtain : T●eir Cringing and the●r Bowing , Is worse t●en Thee and Thouing , Poor Women find the Vowing of men , is all but vain : Poor Women , &c. In v●●n their mean and Carriage , their promis'd Love they feign , In vain they promise Marriage , maids honours for to stain : In vain their Songs and Dances , Plays Masquerades Romances , Poor Women find the Fancies , and vows of men are vain : poor Women , &c.

All Wedlock tyes Defieing , when once their Wills they gain , Scoffing at , or denying , what once did cause their pain : When with a thousand Kisses , And with as many Wishes , Poor Women they with blisses , deceiv'd , which vows are vain : Poor women , &c. And whosoe're believes them , they snare them 't is most plain , And when they 'r took , deceive them , and leave them to complain : Whilst we poor Fools at Mourning , They our Griefs are scorning , Poor Women then take warning , for men are false and vain : Poor Women , &c. They breath false sighs to win us , and Counterfeit Loves pain , And into Bonds they bring us , with Flatteries so vain . By praising of our beauties ; And Swearing 't is their Duties , Poor Woman while she mute is , but find at last all vain : Poor woman , &c. Much like to Airy Vapours , are all the Vows they feign , Or like Expiring Tapours , that ne'r will burn again : But leave us in deep Sorrow , For joys we did but borrow , Poor Women bid Good-morrow , and leave us to Complain : Poor Women , &c. 'T is sure the God of Lovers , made not his Laws in vain , He better joys discovers , and makes his precepts plain : Why them should man delude us , When he has so Judas'd us , Poor Women why be screw'd thus , on things we can't obtain : Poor women , &c. Let us then be contented , let Lordly still remain , For him he was invented , let us not wish in vain : For what though we endeavour , Yet can deserve him never , Poor Women wishing ever , yet all our wishes vain : Poor women , &c. Then let us be contented , and strive no more with pain , Least we at last repent it , and past all hopes , Complain : When there is no Relieving But still we must be grieving Poor Women , by deceiving , men shew their vows are vain : Poor Women , &c.
